The configuration of the display requires a layout of the flow chart to be defined, as well as the workflows associated to each group of tasks, and sub-tasks.

taskRunDialog

Main element of the configuration. This may include the attributes;
Title The title of the window
showProperties An option to enable or disable the Properties dialogue on the display.

taskGroup

For each group of tasks this element is defined. This has two attributes;
Name the name of the group as displayed in the tree view on the left of the display.
workflowId the Id of the workflow which can be submitted to the central server. This workflow should run all the tasks in the group. Note that there is no check if this is indeed the case.

flowChart

This element is used to define the overall layout of the flow chart shown on the main panel. The element has no attributes

scale

Scale can be used to increase and decrease the size of the flow chart, without the need to change each individual item.

taskSize

This defines the size of each task block. The values entered here are multiplied by the scale to find the actual size in pixels. There are two attributes;
width width of each task block - the full width is found by multiplying the width defined with the scale.
height heightof each task block - the full width is found by multiplying the height defined with the scale.

simpleTask

Not used in the configuration of the Interactive Forecast display. This element should not be included.

operatorTask

Definition of each of the sub-tasks that can be run from the display. The attributes that are relevant to the configuration of this display are;
name Name of the task as it should appear on the display
workflowId Id of the workflow to run under this task
explorerLocationId Id of the main location associated with the sub-task. This is used to open the associated display to view results.
runLocally Option whether this task is to run locally or centrally (default: true)

center

Defines the centre of the associated task block. This coordinates are in the same scale as the taskSize. The actual pixels from the top left of the display can be calculated by multiplying with the scale value. The attributes are;
x location of the centre of the task block from the top of the panel
y location of the centre of the task block from the left of the panel

dependency

Defines the tasks on which this task depends (i.e. its predecessors). Zero or more dependencies can be defined. The attributes are;
taskName name of the task that should be run before this one

vertex

If the task being defined and a dependent task cannot be connected by a straight line, a vertex point can be defined. The connecting line will pass through that point. . The actual pixel location from the top left of the display can be calculated by multiplying with the scale value. The attributes are;
x x-coordinate of the vertex from the left of the panel.
y y-coordinate of the vertex from the top of the panel

fewsPanel

Not used in the configuration of the Interactive forecast display. This element should not be included.
